We shoot it ALOT. For .60 a pound it is a wise choice when you have 3 people shooting. Plus, an occasional flyer really helps me at times! I have patterned reclaimed (cleaned, graphited myself) and the difference is not great.

I've gone through a couple of hundred pounds of it and still have about that much left. Can't tell a bit of difference from the 16 yd line.
Mine did come to me very clean and graphited (if that's a word)

I've never tried it myself. When I can find it available to me it is just not worth the small difference in price where I live. Then there's Murphy, just after I buy a large shipment, I find out someone has some to sell. LOL. As long as the shot is cleaned well, and new graphite mixed with the shot, I say go for it. Good Luck and Breake-em all. Jeff

A few years ago we bought 1/2 ton to split and I wish we bought 3 ton -- it was $39 per 100 lbs. I like the stuff if it`s cleaned properly and graphited . I too shot a few 100`s with it and also 1 with reclaimed wads and reclaimed shot so I can`t say anything bad about it . I`d like to get more at a decent price . It`s $90 per 100 local .

i like to run it through my jim stewart black max after cleaning it up into ingots first,the stuff ive run across here is very dirty,have run 500 lbs reclaimed from howard twp c.c.,and ended up with over 50 lbs of dirt,no matter how well you wash it you never get it all,the only way to get it as clean as ill run through my p.w.800b is to re melt it,mark

I use it every day and if I point the gun in the right place it breaks everything, otherwise it does not. Fun aside it seems to work just fine for training and fun shoots but I use the new stuff for competition.

Trap2 Dan I have no doubt you have shot 100 straights with reclaim. My question is, the reclaim I have bought from 2 different sources in MI. have pellets larger than 7.5's. If ever checked at a registered shot what would the ruling be? Jerry in MI.

If they cut open a factory shell.. what do you think you'll get???? I've seen everything from #6's on up... I often think when a manufacturer changes shot size.. they just add to the top of the hopper..and when number wise.. it should be in the fresh shot..it gets stamped as such..
